Western Cape Premier Helen Zille said
the meeting she had with Police Commissioner Arno Lamoer and MEC of Community
Safety Dan Plato on looking at new strategies to curb violence against police
and violence in general in the province was fruitful.
This follows the killing of three
police officers last week in Nyanga and Mfuleni while responding to a crime
scene.
In 2013 about eleven police officers
were murdered in the Western Cape
Premier Zille’s Spokesperson Michael
Mpofu said at the moment the strategies are ongoing and he is not at liberty to
disclose what exactly was discussed because it is still a sensitive issue.
“What I can say is that it includes looking at how best
SAPS can work with the local authorities and looking at what communities can
utilise before requiring a national assistance. In due course these strategies
will be made public.” Mpofu added.
